Book Description

Mora covers the classical theory of finding roots of a univariate polynomial, emphasising computational aspects. He shows that solving a polynomial equation really means finding algorithms that help one manipulate roots rather than simply computing them; to that end he also surveys algorithms for factorizing univariate polynomials.
